### Description

The platform independent function `httplib_pthread_key_delete()` is used to delete a previously allocated key to thread specific data memory. The function returns **0** when succesful or an error code if something went wrong. On systems which support it, the functionality is implemented as a direct call to `pthread_key_delete()`. Otherwise own code is used with equivalent functionality.
